Why is this a typical default?

What you are proposing is identical to property tax, except you are suggesting all property (ie. all assets) be taxed. I agree with previous posts that this is a bad proposal.

We need to abolish all property/wealth taxation.

I have gone from being blind in 2016 to eyes wide open today.

I remember an elementary school film telling us "not to be a pushy pig". "Piggy" does not necessarily mean fat.

I believe a big part of the propaganda objective over my lifetime was down playing the importance of Supreme Court Justice selections.
